I feel your breath
raising hairs at the nape of my neck.
I can smell the cigerettes
familiar
like your arms
folded comfortably around my hips
as we hold hands in a perfect fit.
I feel your eyes
causing somersaults in my stomach
with a passion that settles deep
making it
Hard to breathe
for that moment when you look at me
and I see the love in your eyes.
Last night is what i live for
and this morning
breaks my heart
all over again
I still dream of your face
but these days
my chest is heavy with words
I thought I would have time to say
like,
I still love you.
Any good?

A sweet and tender poem. I like it. Excellent wording such as
I can smell the cigerettes
familiar
like your arms
Some of the imagery in the first two stanzas threw me off a bit...perhaps it's me, but I got contradictory images in my mind as I read...first, I got a visual of a young woman with her lover standing behind her (the breath raising hairs on the nape of the neck) and folding his arms around her waist. Then the holding hands part which was okay (as in I could still fit this all together as physically possible) but looking into each other's eyes changes the imagery.
Love the ending and how purely you express the regret involved in not getting the chance to tell someone you love them.
Very nice poem. -
you have an amazing way of conveying raw, vulnerable emotion. I love it xx
